Press Release/The Adventure Company May 2003
The Adventure Company to Work with Legendary Game-Storyteller,
Jane Jensen
World-Renowned Writer to Guest at E3
The Adventure Company today announced it has an agreement with
Jane Jensen and the company she co-founded, Odyssey Digital Entertainment,
to write and produce an exclusive new title. Terms of
the deal were not discussed.
Jane Jensen has made a massive name for herself amongst gamers,
especially the legions of fans that adored her Gabriel Knight
Mystery Series. Renowned for writing some of the most story-intensive
games of all time, Jane has the ability to capture the gamer’s
imagination.
“
I’m truly delighted to be working with Jane, we’re
all massive fans here,’ commented CEO, Richard Wah Kan. “She
brings an amazing level of intensity to adventure games.”
Jane is currently in the midst of the design process of this next
game, and although untitled, ‘Project Jane-J’ will
be a mystery that takes the paranormal very seriously. Based
on mind-altering experiments of a reclusive doctor, the story
throws a young female student deep into a world telepathy and
clairvoyance, where nothing is as it seems. Like CSI’s
use of forensic science, the game and story-line will be based
on real neurobiology and psi research.
The game-play will be a combination of investigative, third-person
adventure game play, Myst-style logic puzzles interspersed with
some arcade-style sequences. The title is expected to be on shelves
in Q4 2004.
